Fig. 3

Tsp4b localization to VMS and tenocyte projections requires mechanical force.

Lateral views of live control (A–C) and αBtx injected (D–F) Tg(scx:mCherry) embryos (48 hpf), injected with tsp4b-gfp mRNA showing localization of Tsp4b-GFP (green) (arrowheads) along the VMS and tenocyte projections (red). (I) Histogram shows the percentage of embryos with Tsp4b-GFP localized to VMS (n = 27, p value calculated by chi-squared test <0.05). (G–H) Lateral views of immunostained embryos showing Tsp4b protein localization detected immunohistochemically along VMS in control (G) and αBtx injected (H) embryos. (J) Dot plot shows individual data points of the fluorescent intensity of localized Tsp4b along the VMS in control and αBtx injected embryos. Three VMSs/embryo were sampled in control and αBtx-injected embryos. (n = 9, p value calculated by Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test - < 0.0001). Scale bars = 20 microns. The measurements used for quantitative analysis and creation of the plots can be accessed from Figure 3—source data 1 and Figure 3—source data 2.
